Abstract
An investigation is presented here concerning the distribution
of earthquake energy and number of shocks in accordance with the
focal depth. The global distribution of these quantities according to the depth
of hypocentres can be approached by an exponential curve between 0 and
about 500 km under the Earth's surface.
